Davy Graham rose from the British folk circuit in the early 60s to not only invent the folk guitar instrumental, but progress into world music. Never content, Graham traveled overseas as an innovative approach to his guitar playing, finding inspiration in Indian, Middle Eastern and Morrocon music, to name but a few. He influenced countless musicians and still does to this day. He was simply always ahead of the field and I've put together a few samples of his unique repetoire for your pleasure.

When I first heard him in the 1970s via The Complete Guitarist, my friend and I just looked at each other. Our facial expressions said, And we thought we were guitar players.

woah. 4:39 - there it is perfectly - the distinctive "led zep" riff to "nobody's fault but mine". Never knew this one came from Davy too.

I gotta say the audio quality is absolutely incredible in this video!! Please send me a message to tell what is your method!

Really, I have no method. They are just simply MP3s that I have cut up and put together on windows movie maker, which doesn't upgrade the sound at all. I know music used to suffer on Youtube, it would become a mono sound, I think it allows stereo now.
